By Associated Press to The Review
Chicago. 111., Jan. 27.—Tbe Illinois
Women's Fair Price Commission, which
distributed 25,000 blank "complaint
cards received only ten replies from
women who believed they were victims
of profiteers". Mra Joseph T. Bowen,
head of the commission, announced today. Twenty cards bearing vague Information and charges were returned to
the United States district attorneys office. One card carried a long complaint about tbe price of humming
birds and another protested against
profiteering ln akunka
"There are three reasons I can think
of for this poor response to.the complaint campaign", Mrs. Bowen said
"First public resentment over high
prices may have been over estimated;
second, people wbo believe their dealer
la gouging tbem would rather pay the
excess than run the risk of being called as a witness in a court prosecution:
third, dealers have threatened that Informants will be blacklisted and repaid
for turning ln complaints by having
their service and credit cut down".

Washington, D. C, Jan. 37.—The fate]
of compromise negotiations on- the
peace treaty remained la doubt*- today
after the bi-partisan conference had
discussed - without decision the refusal
of the .Republicans to- compromise on
article ten. Another meeting will be
hdd Thursday.
' Democratic leaders, replying to the
Republican ultimatum regarding article ten, did not present a definite refusal to go on vrith the negotiations
but expressed great surprise declaring
an article ten compromise already had
been assented to by most of the members of the coherence before the Republicans served notice they would not
agree to a compromise.
Under the proposed compromise aa
made publlo by Senator Hitchcock of
Nebraska, the acting Democratic leader, the Senate would declare by reservation that the United States would
not employ the economic boycott or It*
armed forces to reserve the territorial
Integrity of any other country unless
congress acted tn specific case.
After the meeting which developed
some heated discussion some senators
on both sides professed to see hope that
a compromise might yet be. reached.
The general attitude of the conferees,
however, was not one of optimism.
With the failure of the bi-partisan
conference to effect a compromise the
peace treaty ratification fight will be
resumed on the floor of th* Senate. The
conference came to an abrupt eh_ yesterday wben the Demoorats > left, th*

Columbus, O., Jan. 27.—Ohio employers as well as employes are decidedly
opposed to the plan of the Ohio general
assembly to shift the cost of administering the workmen's compensation
funds of the state.
"This is simply passing the buck and
you will never get anywhere with the
taxation problem by passing the buck",
Malcolm Jennings, secretary of the
Ohio Manufacturers' Association told
the joint legislative committee on administrative re-organlzatlon which proposes the change ln the workmen's
compensation law, at a meeting ln the
Senate chamber last night.
"Tou are simply passing -op to the
22,000 employers of the state which
subscribe to this fund a burden which
the state as a whole should bear", Robert E. "Leo, representing the Firestone
Tire and Rubber company of Akron told
the committee.
George D. Selby, Portsmouth manufacturer, B. H. Pat-more, Cleveland
manufacturer A 8. Burkett of the Ohio
Milk Distributors and Ice Cream manufacturers and others made similar
protests.,
T. J. Donnelly, secretary of the Ohio
Federation of Labor declared labor like
wise opposes the change tn the compensation law proposed by the committee.
, "This ls the first step towards wrecking the workmen's compensation fund"
Jennings declared.
Jennings got a rise out of Senator
Whlttemore,' chairman of the committee
and author of the bin to make the
change; "I reaettt the insinuation that
this committee ls trying to wreck the
fund, "but yeu ere adopting the plan of
the opponent* of tha fund wbich la the
loading up of the fund with expense to
the end tt will be broken down**.'
"The plan you propose would make
the industrial commission the harbor of
aO aorta of political spoilsmen and put
It entirely under political control*'.
Secretary Jennings suggested to the
committee that tt give consideration to
the consumption taa on all gross sales
ea a scientific way of solving the present difficulty.

head of the commission, announced today. Twenty cards bearing vague Information and charges were returned to
the United States district attorneys office. One card carried a long complaint about tbe price of humming
birds and another protested against
profiteering ln akunka
"There are three reasons I can think
of for this poor response to.the complaint campaign", Mrs. Bowen said
"First public resentment over high
prices may have been over estimated;
second, people wbo believe their dealer
la gouging tbem would rather pay the
excess than run the risk of being called as a witness in a court prosecution:
third, dealers have threatened that Informants will be blacklisted and repaid
for turning ln complaints by having
their service and credit cut down".

Columbus, O., Jan. 27.—Ohio employers as well as employes are decidedly
opposed to the plan of the Ohio general
assembly to shift the cost of administering the workmen's compensation
funds of the state.
"This is simply passing the buck and
you will never get anywhere with the
taxation problem by passing the buck",
Malcolm Jennings, secretary of the
Ohio Manufacturers' Association told
the joint legislative committee on administrative re-organlzatlon which proposes the change ln the workmen's
compensation law, at a meeting ln the
Senate chamber last night.
"Tou are simply passing -op to the
22,000 employers of the state which
subscribe to this fund a burden which
the state as a whole should bear", Robert E. "Leo, representing the Firestone
Tire and Rubber company of Akron told
the committee.
George D. Selby, Portsmouth manufacturer, B. H. Pat-more, Cleveland
manufacturer A 8. Burkett of the Ohio
Milk Distributors and Ice Cream manufacturers and others made similar
protests.,
T. J. Donnelly, secretary of the Ohio
Federation of Labor declared labor like
wise opposes the change tn the compensation law proposed by the committee.
, "This ls the first step towards wrecking the workmen's compensation fund"
Jennings declared.
Jennings got a rise out of Senator
Whlttemore,' chairman of the committee
and author of the bin to make the
change; "I reaettt the insinuation that
this committee ls trying to wreck the
fund, "but yeu ere adopting the plan of
the opponent* of tha fund wbich la the
loading up of the fund with expense to
the end tt will be broken down**.'
"The plan you propose would make
the industrial commission the harbor of
aO aorta of political spoilsmen and put
It entirely under political control*'.
Secretary Jennings suggested to the
committee that tt give consideration to
the consumption taa on all gross sales
ea a scientific way of solving the present difficulty.
